Before & After Photos

June is #NationalHealthyHomesMonth! This homeowner in Friendship, MD, was uncomfortable in their home. Each room had a different temperature, making it hard to get comfortable. One of our Home Comfort Specialist's examined the home and realized that the attic was the source of the issue. The insulation was non-existent or deteriorated, limiting its effectiveness. Our Home Comfort Specialist recommended removing all the old insulation and adding in Blown-in Cellulose insulation. The homeowner is already noticing a difference and has seen the savings on their utility bill.

This homeowner was having issues with inconsistent temperatures and musty odors.

One of our Home Comfort Specialist's performed a complete comprehensive energy analysis of the home to determine the issue. The issue was that the crawl space needed to be properly encapsulated. Our production team then put spray foam on the walls and encapsulated the crawlspace. The insulation and vapor barrier stop moisture and uncomfortable temperatures from entering the home. This homeowner can look forward to lower energy bills and a healthier, more comfortable home. There is also an added benefit of keeping rodents out.  

Not only was the insulation in the crawl space insufficient. it was installed improperly or upside down!  In conjunction with an ineffective vapor, the entire crawl space was contaminated with organic growth.  Allowing unhealthy air to penetrate into the home. 

We removed the contaminated insulation and installed a new airtight barrier to help prevent groundwater infiltration.  After properly treating the crawl space, new insulation was installed to create a thermal barrier to help keep the floor above more comfortable.

Upon arrival on a job, responding to a complaint about a poorly working A/C unit that was recently installed by another company, our technician Michael was shocked to open the door to the utility room and find the duct work was constructed of cardboard. Michael jumped right into action and picked up the correct materials to increase the efficiency and operation of the unit leaving us with another happy customer.

Properly installed and adequate levels of insulation in the attic space allows the inside temperatures of the home to remain regulated. Insufficient insulation allows outside air to seep in to the home and inside air to seep out through the insulation and through cracks in the roof.

This home in Capitol Heights, Maryland suffered from uncomfortable temperatures in the home and called Complete Home Solutions. Our Auditor determined that the source of the temperatures was the insufficient insulation in the attic. Our Production Team removed the existing insulation and replaced it with Dr. Energy Saver's recommended insulation levels. This will make the home more comfortable for the homeowners and make the home more energy efficient.
